Description:

This collectible phone card features an iconic photographic work by David Hamilton, titled "Twenty-Five Years Nude Woman On Bed Photo #5 SPECIMEN." The card commemorates the 25th anniversary of Hamilton's artistic career, as highlighted by the inscription “TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OF AN ARTIST” prominently displayed beneath the photograph. The image itself is a soft-focus, dreamlike composition characteristic of Hamilton's signature style, depicting a topless woman lying on a bed in an intimate and contemplative pose. Gentle lighting caresses her form, emphasizing the natural curves and delicate textures of her skin, while surrounding elements fade softly into the background, creating an ethereal effect.

Dated April 1994, the photograph captures the woman reclined on a richly textured bed adorned with draped fabrics and plush bedding, contributing to an atmospheric ambiance that is both sensuous and innocent. Her body is partially veiled by a translucent, flowing fabric that delicately conceals her torso, adding artistic nuance and evoking vulnerability and beauty in repose. Her left arm is bent, resting behind her head, while her right hand lightly touches her abdomen, further suggesting a natural, unguarded moment. This composition exemplifies Hamilton’s dedication to portraying the female form with reverence and artistic grace, blending softness with a vintage, romantic aesthetic.

The card features a white border, with the artist’s name “DAVID HAMILTON” elegantly printed in a slim, sophisticated typeface at the top. His signature appears at the bottom right corner, enhancing its collectible appeal. The backlit print quality emphasizes the muted pastel palette and warm tones that are characteristic of Hamilton's work. The image showcases his mastery of light diffusion techniques, allowing viewers to appreciate the delicate interplay of shadows and highlights that add depth and texture without harsh contrasts. This ethereal softness imparts a nostalgic, almost dreamlike quality, which is a hallmark of his nude photography genre.

As a piece of photographic art, this collectible phone card holds significance not only for admirers of David Hamilton’s work but also for enthusiasts of artistic nude photography in general. The topless female figure, captured in a candid and natural pose while lying in bed, evokes the quiet intimacy and introspective mood that defined much of Hamilton's portfolio over more than two decades. Released in April 1994, the card underscores the enduring appreciation for Hamilton’s contributions to fine art photography, capturing an adult-themed yet delicate and artistic expression.
